Rowan is dealing with some serious emotional distress
that has yet to be resolved. One of my favorite parts of the book is when Keir suggests that Rowan seek professional help to deal with her issues.


The romantic aspect of the story was not as well-executed.
The chemistry between Rowan and Keir, who ended up getting married in a seemingly sudden and unbelievable way, felt forced.


I admit I had high expectations for this particular story, especially since I enjoyed the first book in the series. This one just wasn't for me!

This follows Rowan and Keir. She is the daughter of the governor and after visiting her boyfriend may have uncovered a family secret that could potentially get her in some hot water. But after a tattooed Irish mafia man named Keir shows up at her house one night to see the governor, she seeks him out help to uncover the secrets. Rowan on the outside may seem tough but is battling some past grief and loss. 

I enjoyed this forced marriage read and hope to pick more up in the future. I enjoyed the MMC Keir in this as he was caring towards Rowan due to her mental state. She has been struggling and holding it in but Keir managed to open her like a book. Rowan for me was a great character too but made some silly choices. I wish her parents were more supportive of her as a lot of weight could have been lifted off her shoulders if she knew the truth ages ago.

Overall it was a great read on my Kindle and listen if you want to pick up the Audiobook. I will say I do prefer book one's characters but I’m very excited for the next book if it’s Torin because of what he did at the end of this book I’m on my knees.
